Dari keseluruhan temuan, dapat disimpulkan bahwa TPR telah diimplementasikan sesuai dengan teori yang dikonsepkan oleh Larsen-Freeman (2000) dan Richards & Rodgers (2001) dan dikombinasikan dengan lagu. Berdasarkan pernyataan guru dan hasil tes, alasan- alasan mengapa metode TPR digunakan adalah karena dapat membuat siswa menikmati kelas, mudah memahami materi, dan guru mempertimbangkan bahwa TPR efektif dalam meningkatkan kemampuan menyimak dan berbicara siswa.
